    Bummer. I always expect European countries to be more reasonable than the states but I guess bigotry is everywhere.

      people don’t like to acknowledge it, but what happens in the state has a knock on effect here in the EU. It empowers our rightwing fucks to steal the same tactics that worked in the US and start them here

      That means we’ll always be behind as those tactics need time to simmer but the news already helps by reporting on what happens over there, reactionaries take that and run with it. They tried that in my country recently with the drag stuff, thankfully their protest failed

      yall over there don’t exist in a vacuum, sadly

      edit: also don’t forget there’s already a nice breeding ground over here. The nazis were European after all

        The Nazis based their eugenics philosophy on Americans treatment of Black and indigenous people, its always been this way
